United States Census The record of the population census from 1790 to 1930. Scanned from microfilm from the collections of the Allen County Public Library and originally from the United States National Archives Record Administration . As of the launch there were 13,004,791 page images.

These questions are indicative of the situation the U.S. found itself in 1930, and which have proven to be valuable for people researching their ancestors.
